...came to Harvard that I wanted to do art, [but]...sculpture and drawing just didn't lend themselves to the stories I wanted my work to tell." Video, then, was a natural choice for Buckingham, whose self-professed inability to "think linearly" swayed her away from film, a medium that requires a much more carefully structured approach to creating a cohesive set of images...

And hear what three such artists-ALLAN KAPROW, inventor of the capital-H Happening, PAUL McCARTHY, the most scatological performance artist now working, and VANESSA BEECROFT, best known for her work with large roomfuls of naked girls-have to say about the exhibition...
